POLICY ISSUE (NEGATIVE CONSENT)
June 11.1998 SECY-98-135 EQB-The Commissioners FROM L. Joseph Callan Executive Director for Operations
SUBJECT:
DECOMMISSIONING P!LOl' PROGRAM FOR MATERIALS LICENSEES PURPOSE:
To inform the Commission of the status of the pilot program to improve the decommissioning process for materials licensees.
BACKGROUND:
In the Staff Requirements Memorandum (SRM) dated March 31,1997, the Commission directed the staff to implement a decommissioning pilot program in accordance with the St.ategic Assessment, Direction-Setting issue # 9, " Decommissioning of Non-Reactor Facilities." The pilot program would use a performance-oriented approach that would simply i
provide the residual contamination goals, and allow the licensees to proceed with decommissioning without obtaining approval of a decommissioning plan. Volunteer participants would be technically capable and adequately funded, and the sites would be non-complex, minimally contaminated, and would undergo only routine decommissioning activities. The Commission also directed the staff to conduct a workshop in connection with the pilot program.
This paper provides the status of the pilot program.
